Abraham's father was Terah. His mother's name is not given in scripture.

Genesis 11:31 Terah took Abram his son, and Lot the son of Haran, his grandson, and Sarai his daughter-in-law, his son Abram's wife; and they went out together from Ur of the Chaldeans in order to enter the land of Canaan; and they went as far as Haran, and settled there.

Abraham was originally Abram until God changed his name.

Abraham's father was Terah as stated in the bible.Different apocryphal books call his mother different names. Legends of the Jews calls her Emetali, Jubilees calles her Edna, The book of Jasher calls Abraham's mother Amthelo.Eutychius calls her Yona,There are other apocryphal books that call her different names. The most common among the books is some derivation of Emetali

as said, Abraham's father was Terah, and I concur that as far as I have heard, his mother was not named.

and another interesting bit of trivia...I don't remember if its explicitly scriptural, but its a common belief that Terah was a Idol-maker.
